Monday Morning

"Hey Marty come on and swing, hum, looks like you've got the world on a string!" Deeks sang as he walked through the doors of the OSP office with his sunglasses perched on his nose.

Suddenly Deeks collided with Sam just standing in the middle of the floor.

"Whoa, what's up, why is everyone just standing here speechless?" Deeks asked, taking his glasses off and clipping them onto his shirt.

"What does it look like?" Kensi asked, pointing to the extra desk in front of her.

"One, two, three… wait, why are there five desks?" Deeks asked.

At that moment, Callen walked over to his desk and put some paper work in the 'Done' pile as Deeks called it.

The three quickly rushed over to Callen with questioning glares.

Callen heard the footsteps and looked up.

"Can I help you with any thing?" Callen asked a little sarcastically.

"Yeah, G, maybe you can tell us why there five desks?" Sam asked, folding his arms over his chest.

"Well, maybe because there are four agents and one liaison." Callen said standing up straight.

"Wait, G, I think your math is a little off, because there are three agents." Sam said, showing Callen three fingers.

"No, the fourth agent is walking in the door right now." Callen said, pointing to the door.

At that moment, Lara walked through the door.

"Lara." Deeks said, as he went over to Lara.

"Lara?" were Sam and Kensi's answers.

"Yep, Lara is our new agent." Was what Callen said to the two confused friends.

"So, Agent Callen, where do I sit?" Lara asked, as she came over to the three with Deeks in tow.

"Welcome to the team." Kensi said, shaking Lara's hand.

"I have one thing to say." Sam said, raising his hands to get everyone's attention.

Everyone held their breath for a brief moment while Sam looked very serious.

Suddenly Sam broke out into a smile and said, "Welcome to the team!"

Everyone broke into smiles.

"Hey we should go and celebrate!" Deeks said, putting his hands in the air.

"Yeah." Everyone replied.

But, just as they were about to head through the door there came a piercing whistle from upstairs.

"Looks like celebration will have to wait, because we have a new case." Hetty said as she came up behind the group.

"As usual." Was Deeks' reply.

So the team headed upstairs with their new team member to start their next case.

THE END
